Back in April, Oprahs’ great channel with not so great ratings, OWN, put out a press release announcing the star of Shaqtin a Fool, planking king and piano maestro that’s capable of playing “Purse Imagination” from Willy Wonka (not that creepy Johnny Depp/Time Burton version) & the Chocolate Factory , JaVale McGee, along with his mom, former WNBA player and current manager Pamela McGee, would have their own reality show called “Millionaire Mama’s Boy.”

If you saw the 2011 NBA dunk contest where JaVale dunked 3 balls with the assistance of his mom who stole the show when she kissed Dr J then you probably realized there was a future for the two on TV especially considering Basketball Wives is entering it’s 5th season.

I personally still think the Nick and JaVale show deserves an expanded format but Mama’s Boy will do.
